You Would Rescue Me

Neon lights begin to shimmer
In the early evening mist
And the streets are filled with taxis
A feeling I won’t soon forget
So many pretty girls in this city
Might feel lost out on their own
Baby, you give me the courage
With you I’m right where I belong

✧

If I should ever stumble
You would catch me when I fall
If I ever felt uncertain
You’d find a way to calm it all
And if I were ever in trouble
Baby, you would rescue me
You would rescue me

✧

Holding onto your arm
Walking nowhere, just for air
Taking in the sounds of the city
With you, I could go anywhere
Now we’ve wandered a little farther
And the streets are getting dark
Time to turn around and go back
Find that quiet place to spark

✧

If I should ever stumble
You would catch me when I fall
If I ever felt uncertain
You’d find a way to calm it all
And if I were ever in trouble
Baby, you would rescue me

✧

When I’m with you, I feel safe
Like nothing could go wrong
You don’t have to say a word
I just know where I belong

✧

If I ever felt uncertain
You’d find a way to calm it all
And if I were ever in trouble
Baby, you would rescue me
You would rescue me
Baby, you would rescue me
